The protector of Midgard, the friend and stronghold of men in the unstable, unpredictable times of our ancestors.
Asa-Thor the mighty, or Donar how we Germans call him ;) .
Hotheaded with his flaming red-beard, his mighty Hammer Mjölnir, his belt Megingiard and his Chariot draged by his undiying he-goats Tanngnjostr and Tanngrisnir.
Doing at what hes best: Kicking Godlike Giant Ass.

despite my love for norse Mythology, I was strongly inspired by this awesome Manowar Song:

I especially like that you correctly retain his red beard, unlike all the comic book inspired blond Thors.

Have you ever read the old fantasy novella "The Roaring Trumpet," the first in the Harold Shea series by L. Sprague de Camp and Fletcher Pratt? The Brothers Hildebrandt, the popular artists of the 1970's and '80's, did a couple of illustrations for it, but I think your style would be even more ideal.

Excellent, as usual.

LOVE the work!
Love that you know a little about norse mythology! :D
Love the song... Manowar may be a bunch of bloody foreigners, but they got some of the best viking-related lyrics in the world...

*bows in awe*

Thx you take your time if you like something, thats great and appriciated.
If I wasnt that flooded with work at the moment I would go for some more (Norsegods).

But the moment I find some time for a bigger piece I like to go on Old Wotan himself ;).

If I had the money I'd commision you to do an image of Loke... of all the norse gods he is far underrepresented in modern art...
Just love that he's the god of MISCHIEF and deceit ;)
Every religion needs a mischief-god, if you ask me :P
